Translation Memories on Line — Mémoires de traduction en ligne

MyMemory and others

Translated.net, the translation agency, one of whose characteristics consists in making the most of technology in order to automate project management, recently released a huge collaborative translation memory.

Now available on the Web, MyMemory will soon comprise 300 million translation segments.

To put together this enormous corpus of segments translated into all of the world’s languages, or most of them, Translated.net relied on several sources. For the one thing, the agency has integrated its own translation memories into the system. For the other, it has convinced several others to collaborate on this exceptional project. The translation memories of the European Union, for instance, have been incorporated into the repository.

This project is obviously of great interest, and it seems to combine the advantages of many competing solutions, such as that of TAUS.

It will be recalled that there are other important sources of linguistic content freely available online, including TERMIUMPlus ® or IATE.
